Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I try not to talk about anyone's genitals with them (other than Tim, and frankly, even that should be limited to 140-character tweets).

Words to live by, really.

Although I *do* make an exception for "Dick in a Box." As all right-thinking people should.

I can't be cool without telling you what I do in the bedroom!

As one of the LJ comments pointed out...not being able to talk about your sex life at work is NOT OPPRESSION. It's just that NOBODY TALKS ABOUT THEIR SEX LIFE AT WORK. You can't talk about your weekend plans at work because all your plans are about aweome sex parties? Too fucking bad! Make some worksafe plans next time!

You know what kinky folk can say? "I'm getting together with some friends." "Going to a party." "Eh, just hanging out."

That works pretty damn well.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

God, right? I mean, you can just say "a party," right?? You don't have to say what's going to happen at that party? I mean, I hardly ever tell anyone I'm going to to a drinks party, either.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

There were smoke warnings driving back to Dallas from Austin Sunday. Driving in, we thought it was a lot of smog. It's not close to us yet, but it's inching our way.

We are supposed to have storms for the next 5 days, so fingers crossed!

Art Crawl!!!

le nubian - I was saddened to discover that they are out of the "You Speak English So Well" totebag. I need it.

Always Anti-fascist!

Sometimes I feel lucky I don't have a 9 to five because mostly my "Weekend plans" are shit like "Watch "No Reservations and paint my toenails" If it's a really exciting weekend,*maybe* simultaneously. I know y'all are jealous.(Although when he ate chicken anus, it kind of threw off my manicurist.) Also, my mom once told a co-worker about a documentary we rented( Brick City, which is seriously made of awesome, and got *eww* face. She works at a high school. I weep for our nation. Rent the movie...Mayor Booker will make you feel good about life.)

Wirefiends will love it like pie. Or the pepper steak at The High Hat. But my mom doesn't chat about what's in the envelope any more at work.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I don't talk about my weekend plans. They aren't anyone's business right now.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Skipped a zillion posts. I shouldn't be online -- I should be putting together a lesson plan for teaching about polar coordinates -- but I really have no good ideas for polar coordinates. I wish I had a week instead of a day to teach this.
